Princess Bay, Staten Island, during squall
Yesterday afternoon and instantly killed
Michael J. Dixon and John 7. Ryan, of New

manufacturer and Ryan was the proprietor
of an ice cream saloon.

Eyery woman KNOWS Them.

The human body is much like good

goes too slow or too fast, so follow all the
others, and bad time results; if one organ
or set of organs works imperfectly, perver-
sion of functional effort of all the organs is
sure to follow. Hence it is that the numer'

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper !.
the State, and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY.sEvEN YEARS ofits existence. In
its columns has always been found mirror
of passing events, and the careful chroni-
cling of the history ofwhat is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. 1t is always
welcomed in the household, while in the
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable
The GAZETTE has better facilities for Oh
tanning news than any paper outside of The
national capital. Situated as it is so close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit OF the Associated Press dis.
patches from every part ofthe world thence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our own domain as well as
from every part of the habitable globe
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa-
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE great desideratum with mer.
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department. furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
and near the city, and this feature will
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of thestate, is pub
lished regularly, and all evente Of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com.
mOnwealth are to he found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzErrr's circulation is steadily "a
creasing, especially among people who con-
suit lis advertising columns before purchas.
ing. That this is self-evident may be infer.
red from the fact that large country edi.
tion-uearly as large as the daily-is sent

whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of adj

THE career OF E. l.. Harper, vice presi-
dent OF the Fidelity National bank, OF
Cincinnati, who ruined the institution
through being crushed in a Chicago wheat
corner, furnishes another chance for ser.
monizing on the evils of speculation. Had
he made a success of his manipulations
people would have applauded. but as he
failed s~tupendously there is no possible
excuse for him. In 1879 he made a for
tune in the pig iron boom. He followed
this up in 1882 by ~scooping $780, 900 out
of Chicago wheat. He tried another deal
in 1885 and got badly crushed, but by
booming Fidelity bank stock and attract
ing a lot of country creditors he secured
the needed capital for another deal in
May wheat. Out of this transaction he
made a cool million but got beyond his
depth in June and was knocked financially
higher than G%ilderoy's kite.

Matching teeth" is one of the most
tiresome and difficult tasks incident to
dentistry. As used in the profession, the
term means the selection of artificial teeth
that will correspond in shape and color
with those that nature has provided. To
match in color is the serious work. The
slightest variation in teeth not noticeable
before the plate has been made becomes
a serious fault as soon as the made tooth
appears ut the side of the natural one.
The shape is less trying on the patience,
though a great measure of the success
depends upon care in this detail. If moro
than one false tooth is to be inserted, care
must be taken that they be not perfectly
uniform in size and shape. Perfect regu-
larity even in natural teeth often causes
suspicion among gossipy Observers

A Miniature water spout.

A whirlwind or small cyclone about
fifteen feet wide passed over a pond at
Greenville, Ala, forcing the water up
for about two or two and one-half feet its
entire width, and then twisting it into a
pillar about a foot in diameter. This
stem was perpendicular for about six
feet, when it gradually widened until a
height of about sixty or seventy feet was
attained. The water then fell in a spray.
Those who witnessed it say that the
whirlwind formed a huge goblet of water,
and it was II of the prettiest sights they
ever witnessed. Chicago News.

THE Denver Republican continues to
harp on the subject of land steals, con
corning which it does not seem to possess
an overwhelming amount of accurate in
formation. For some reason or other it
singles out Wyoming as the place par ex-
~cellence in which land frauds vegetate
and thrive. AS the Republican has so
suddenly developed an interest in this
subject We would suggest that instead of
SO persistently treating the subject at long
range it look a little nearer home and see
if it can make any discoveries.

A COMMUNICATION written by one of
the colored cavalry now in camp at Carlin
and signed "Africus," which appeared in
the last issue of the Army and Nary
Register. will be read with some interest.
1t is as follows:
In accordance with orders Of the depart
ment commander, Troop K, Ninth cav
airy, took up the march on the 23rd ulti.
mo, for the scene of the reported fencing
trouble near Cheyenne, Wyo. AS the
troop numbered only forty eight men and
horses, while the law.breaking cattle syn
dicates control a small army OF armed re-
t%ainers, it is presumed that the order to
tear down some 800 miles of wire fence,
arrest the violators of the law, and other
wise maintain the dignity Of the interior
department, was intended to be taken in
q Pickwickian sense; subsequent events
have confirmed this i'm Impression. After a
rapid march OF six days we arrived at Fort
D. A. Russell. on the Both ultimo, and
after reporting to the agent of the interior
department here, pitched our tents in
Camp Carlin, midway between the city
and the post. Considerable curiosity was
manifested, both here and en- route, t.
see the troop, and, judging from appear.
ances, the negro %cayalryman is quite rare

THE clergymen of Omaha are coming
to the front strongly on the subject of a
more rigid observance of Sunday. AT
their last meeting they unanimously
adopted the following:
ReSolUed, That the Sunday Observance
Association express their sympathy with
the Christian people living in the north
part of the city, among whom the rest
and quiet of the Lords day are disturbed
by base ball and other athletic sports, and
we respectfully petition the mayor to en-
force the law.
ResOtUed. That we respectfully petition
the mayor to enforce the law regarding
the closing of beer gardens, beer saloons
and dancing houses and all unnecessary
labor on the Lords day.
The newspapers of the city are Just as
unanimous in protesting against the pro-
hibition of Sunday ball playing. They
argue that Sunday is the only day of rec
reation that hundreds of people have,
and hat many OF these hundreds who
ioyfully attend the ball games would not
compromise on church, even though Sun
day ball playing was prohibited.
Many people, it appears to us, find rec.
%reation in church going, aud many fail to
find it, either through educational train
ing or constitutional popularity. Free
dom of religious conviction is guaranteed
in this country, and respectable non
church, goers should be permitted some
privileges on Sundays, providing they do
nothing which is offensive to their neigh
